Well…
There they are Bobby… sorry to keep you waiting! lol
i moved up in wieght to take this fight on short notice, and keenan did not even try, to cut im sure. he said he had to take a piss right before wiegh ins and if you are a real MAKE. WEIGHT you cant take a piss cause you have no wATER IN YOUR BODY
Ya 5lbs for 145lbs is a big miss. Not good.
You’re right Tyler.
If a guy tries with everything he has, and is insanely depleted and drawn out and dehydrated but still, due to a horrible miscalculation, misses weight, it is unprofessional.
If a guy looks plump in the face and happy and takes a piss while missing weight that is UNFORGIVABLE.
People HAVE to stop hiring guys who are that unprofessional. There are literally HUNDREDS of talented, young, professional guys out there dying for a shot.
Tyler, the only answer is to go kick some ass.
“People HAVE to stop hiring guys who are that unprofessional. There are literally HUNDREDS of talented, young, professional guys out there dying for a shot.”
…this….
balls-y my friend, people would NOT believe how many young, talented, driven 0-0 guys there are out there right now. It is downright scary. Guys who are hard working and respectful and will be good for the sport.
I know ten AMAZING 0-0 guys that are patiently waiting for a chance. Guys that would never dream of missing weight because doing a great job, doing it right, is too important to them.
Watch over the next 6 months how many good new guys there are out there.
Aslo watch… soon the only guys fighting are going to be guys who are willing to fight good guys. There’s gonna be no room out there for guys looking to build (pad) their records fighting bums.
Why would a promoter put a bum and a guy who’s not willing to fight a real fight on their show when they could put 2 talented, real fighters on their card?
The days of stud vs can are about to end. Promoters won’t need those fights with the glut of talent coming up.
Well Shannon has made weight all he has left to do is tap out.
at least he made wieght
Tyler I appoligized for not making weight i cut 16 lbs for that fight in 36 hrs. If thats not trying then please tell me what is. It was a huge cut for me and i told u that from the start and said i tried to even push out a piss and i coudlnt, not that I went and took a piss. If i could have made that weight that day i would have. Sorry I had a shitty cut and it coudlnt get down 4 more lbs.
